My dear Frau Wolff,
Gertrud Baer has already written you, I am sure, that I have obliged to give up all my speaking engagements this autumn. I was seriously ill for several days in Torquay and the doctor insisted that if I remained in Europe at all I should have to do very little speaking and live the life of an invalid for several months. This medical verdict was confirmed by a doctor whom we later saw in Paris, so that I have no choice in the matter but to [carry out] these instructions.
I recall with much pleasure for a few days which I spent at Frankfurt a/Main in 1919 when Dr. Hamilton and I were visiting various German cities in the interests of the Quakers. We were received everywhere with such kindness and courtesy and I am doubly sorry not to be able to visit you again.
